Walnuts in Southern California: Control of codling moth by treatment with new materials evaluated during 1952 season

open access: yesCalifornia Agriculture, 1953
DDT is the most effective and economically feasible material to use for the control of the codling moth on walnuts in southern California. It has been used successfully under a variety of conditions for a number of years in the field. At present there is

Synthetic biology approaches to generate temperature‐sensitive alleles for the Sterile Insect Technique

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) is an environmentally friendly, sustainable pest control approach, which uses large‐scale releases of sterile insects to suppress or eradicate target populations through infertile matings. The efficiency of SIT is enhanced by male‐only releases requiring genetic sexing strains (GSSs) that are classically ...

IAEA Coordinated Research Project on “A generic approach for the development of genetic sexing strains for Sterile Insect Technique applications”— an overview

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The sterile insect technique (SIT) plays an important role in environmentally sustainable pest management. Its effectiveness hinges on specialized genetic tools called genetic sexing strains (GSSs), which enable the production and release of sterile male insects while excluding females.

A Combination of Real-Time PCR and High-Resolution Melting Analysis to Detect and Identify CpGV Genotypes Involved in Type I Resistance

open access: yesViruses, 2019
Cydia pomonella granulovirus, in particular CpGV-M isolate, is used as a biological control against the codling moth (CM), Cydia pomonella. As a result of intensive control over the years, codling moth populations have developed resistance against this ...

Ant–aphid mutualism: the influence of Tapinoma ibericum (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) on Aphis gossypii (Hemiptera: Aphidae) control by commercial and spontaneous natural enemies

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
The mutualism between Tapinoma ibericum ants and Aphis gossypii disrupts the biological control exerted by Aphidius colemani in greenhouse peppers. Ant exclusion increased parasitism and the presence of most natural enemies, although Aphidoletes aphidimyza was more abundant with ants.
